How do dvds hold more memory than cds?

DVD uses 650nm wavelength laser diode light as opposed to 780 nm for CD or 405 nm for HD-DVD or Blu-ray Disc. This permits a smaller pit to be etched on the media surface (1.32 µm for DVD versus 1.6 µm for CD) compared to CDs.


How does a Light Emitting Diode operate?

Unlike the Sun's broad transmission of a wide spectrum of electromagnetic frequencies/wavelengths, LEDs are designed to emit very specific frequencies that are visible as light to us humans. A green LED transmits or emits at 550 nanometer; yellow at at 580nm; red at 675 nm; orange 650nm; infrared 900 nm; laser very sharp at 825 nm.


What does nm mean on a laser pointer?

nm is nano-meters. There will be a number preceding the nm. This number indicates how many nano-meters for a full wave length of the laser light.


Is 447 nm blue?

assuming you are talking about a blue laser diode, yes it is blue. anything 447 and above is safe to be actual blue, the purple diodes are usually around 405 nm


What type of technology is used to operate a DVD Drive?

DVD is an optical disk storage media format.it uses 650 nm wavelength laser diode light as opposed to 780 nm for CD and 405nm for blue-ray disc.


What does 532 wavelength mean in laser?

A laser with a 532 nm wavelength refers to a green laser beam. The number 532 nm indicates the specific wavelength of light that the laser emits, measured in nanometers. This wavelength is in the visible spectrum of light and is commonly used in applications such as laser pointers, laser light shows, and scientific research.


When was the lazer made?

In 1962, Robert N. Hall demonstrated the first laser diode device, made of gallium arsenide and emitted at 850 nm the near-infrared band of the spectrum.


If you buy a laser pointer with 532 nm what does nm mean?

nm is nano-meters. There will be a number preceding the nm. This number indicates how many nano-meters for a full wave length of the laser light. A 532nm is one of the more dangerous levels it can blind a person in a very short amount of time.


The wavelength of red light from 760nm in meters?

If a wavelength of light emitted from a particular red diode laser is 651 nm, its wavelength would be equivalent to 0.000000651 meters.


Light 489 nm Where is this on the electromagnetic spectrum If it is visible light what color Another laser a diode laser emits light 987 nm Where is this on the electromagnetic spectrum?

Light with a wavelength of 489 nm falls within the blue region of the visible spectrum. It is part of the visible light spectrum. Light with a wavelength of 987 nm falls within the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.


Meaning of laser mn?

nm means nanometer, that being the wavelength of that laser.


What is the Ruby laser wavelength?
